Congratulations to Dave Logan and Ed McCaffrey for coaching Cherry Creek High School and Valor Christian all the way to the Class 5A final. I could achieve similar results with these two powerhouse teams.

It would be interesting to see Logan and McCaffrey be brave enough to really prove their coaching prowess by signing on with a Denver Public Schools team.

Let’s see what they can do at Thomas Jefferson, George Washington or the Rebels of Denver South.

Your article highlighting the championship meeting of Dave Logan and Ed McCaffrey was interesting, but where has The Post been celebrating the hard working, dedicated full-time teaching coaches that work in most schools?

I think of Ron Woitalewicz of Dakota Ridge or, out of the past, John Groninger at Alameda High School or Dennis Eckley at Columbine, all of whom coached and taught full loads at their schools.
Those who teach and extend themselves (and their teaching days) on behalf of the student-athletes they work with too often work in relative obscurity.

Logan and McCaffrey are good, but they do not show the deep-down dedication most coaches have.

Rolling Stones tickets go too fast

Re: “The Rolling Stones, Kiss and more,” Nov. 30 features story

The news media got it only half right regarding Rolling Stones ticket sales last week. Tickets under $100 were available, but the resellers had the means to acquire them first.

Despite the fact that I was a presale fan with access two days ahead of general sales, like everyone else, I was only able to access tickets $350 or higher. Every time I found a cheaper ticket, I received already sold messages.

Not surprisingly, prior to the official 10 a.m. start, I saw hundreds of the cheap tickets already on sale for twice their face value or more on the third party sites. How does that happen?

The reseller bots always beat the public out of the blocks, leaving the scraps of outrageous package and premium seat pricing for bonafide fans. Ticketmaster, like most authorized sellers, could care less, since from the get-go they’ve been paid face value by the resellers, who then get carte blanche to gouge everyone.

Why can’t our do-nothing congress do something constructive and make a bipartisan effort to prohibit resellers from gaining access before the public does and inflating prices, as well as regulating the official ticket industry like they would any other in the U.S.?

Sentence too light for officer

Re: “Ex-officer sentenced for sexual contact,” Nov. 30 news story

Concerning former Westminster police officer Curtis Arganbright, do you think this was the only time he seriously misused his uniform? Not likely.

His light sentence is a seriously appalling miscarriage of justice. He was to “serve and protect;” looks like the DA served and protected him.

What a weak and terrible message this sends. Our justice system is seriously broken and sexual crimes often get light sentences.
